ProTool
is the universal configuring software for all SIMATIC operator
panels and for the HMI part of the SIMATIC C7 and executable
under Windows 98 SE/ME and Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP.

ProTool can be seamlessly integrated with STEP7 to become
integral component of Totally Integrated Automation (TIA).
It is then possible to administer the HMI projects by means
of SIMATIC manager within STEP 7 projects and shared use of
the STEP 7 data, such as symbol lists, communication parameters
and messaging.

Re-useable HMI projects configuration

The HMI projects can be scaled up or down for conversion
to different HMI platforms
